When in Doubt, Accessorize It Out

As it turns out, the conundrum is an easier fix than what most may expect. The answer is accessories, accessories, accessories.

Do not sleep on the power of a great necklace. It could be groundbreaking, transforming the drabbest of outfits into a runway look. The best accessories to have in your arsenal are detailed pieces with prints and patterns. These nuanced details will add subtle appeal to anything. If you’re looking for a way to spice up your wardrobe, accessorizing is definitely the way to do it.

The longevity of your clothes will actually increase as well. Think back to one of your favorite outfits. Was it a black dress, or a really funky shirt and the perfect pair of dark blue washed jeans?

It’s one of the most terrible fashion faux pas you can make; I’m sure it is at least top 10 in fashion do’s and don’ts.
